Chapter 268 Let You Go to the Capital
the other side.
"I didn't expect that our brothers would also be able to eat government food."
In the Shanxi garrison camp, the men who surrendered with Hu Wei laughed loudly.
Unlike when I was a bandit and was tense every day, I am much more relaxed now.
"Look at you guys."
Hu Wei just looked at them with pretended displeasure, but the uncontrollable smile on his face betrayed his current mood.
However, seeing that his brothers now have enough food and drink and don't have to worry about it all day long, he is glad that he made the right choice.
"Big brother is still the most powerful one."
Seeing Hu Wei speak, these people turned around and started to flatter Hu Wei.
"That's right, once our boss comes down from the mountain, he will be a general. Who dares to disobey him?"
The people nearby also joined in the excitement and gave Hu Wei a thumbs up.
Since they chose to surrender, the Shanxi prefect did not make things too difficult for them, except for forcing them to wear cooks' clothes and serve porridge.
After the people in the city were no longer so wary of them, Shen Miao directly promoted Hu Wei to the position of general in charge of defending the city.
"That's because the Shanxi prefect is tolerant."
Upon hearing this, Hu Wei shook his head and smiled.
Although he was somewhat brave, he was also a bandit. It would have been impossible for him to become a general directly without Shen Miao's intentional support.
"Tell me, how did a girl like this prefect become such a high-ranking official?"
When Hu Wei mentioned Shen Miao, these people gathered together and started discussing Shen Miao.
It is really rare for a woman to not only become an official, but also a high-ranking official like a prefect.
What's more, a year ago, he was not the prefect of Shanxi.
"I heard that she followed the previous emperor's grandson and ascended to this position in one step."
"Who knows that she and that little grandson..."
"Cough cough!"
Hu Wei listened to these people's discussions, frowned, cleared his brows a few times, and interrupted them.
Although Shen Miao is a woman, in terms of ability, she is definitely not inferior to those high-ranking adults.
"But this prefect is really pretty. If it were back then, he would have snatched her away to be his wife."
After hearing Hu Wei's cough, these people calmed down a little, but they were still quite sure about Shen Miao's appearance.
Even in front of Xu Miaojin, he is not inferior.
"He has the air of a bandit."
A cold voice suddenly came from outside the camp, startling the big men so much that they all stood up straight.
Although Shen Miao would occasionally let down her guard, she would still be cold and aloof, as if no one was allowed to approach her.
She walked up to these people and walked around in front of them with cold eyes.
Just one round had already made these fierce bandits sweat profusely, fearing that their previous comments on Shen Miao would be heard by her.
"Hu Wei, come here."
Shen Miao didn't say much, just glanced at Hu Wei.
"What's the matter, Lord Prefect?"
Hu Wei casually walked in front of Shen Miao and smiled cynically.
"You are allowed to go to the capital."
Shen Miao looked Hu Wei up and down and spoke calmly.
"Going to the capital? What's going on?"
Hu Wei also became confused. As a general who had just been promoted from a bandit, what business did he have in going to the capital?
"The capital is short of manpower. After much consideration, you are the most suitable person."
Shen Miao did not say anything in front of Hu Wei, and answered directly. Then she took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to Hu Wei: "The little emperor's grandson is short of a helper, and you are the only one who is capable and has no hindrance."
"Little grandson, are you talking about the one who defended the city last time?"
Hu Wei still had some impression of the little grandson of the emperor mentioned by Shen Miao.
The guy who shot him with an arrow on the city wall.
"Yes."
Shen Miao nodded.
"What does he use me for?"
Hu Wei frowned. The only interaction between him and the emperor's grandson was that one arrow.
He really couldn't think of any use for him from this grandson of the emperor.
Besides, he is the grandson of the emperor, how could he be short of people?
"You'll know when you go there. He needs someone to help him in the military."
Shen Miao did not say much. The usefulness of Hu Wei would become clear when he arrived.
"Ah."
Hu Wei just nodded when he heard this, and then turned to look at the brothers who were watching the excitement: "What about them?"
The capital is not that close to here, and when Shen Miao talked to him just now, she only said that she wanted him alone.
He and these brothers have been through life and death together and have long been brothers in life and death.
"They can't. The capital has too many people and too many eyes to tolerate them."
Shen Miao shook her head without even thinking about it.
What is the capital city? This time, we are going to be with the emperor's grandson.
How could it be tolerated that the grandson of the emperor is surrounded by a group of guards who are originally bandits?
Moreover, compared with Hu Wei, they are still too ordinary and there is nothing outstanding about them.
"Then I'm not going."
When he heard that he couldn't bring his brothers with him, Hu Wei shook his head and rejected Shen Miao's request.
If he couldn't go with his brothers, then he wouldn't go.
"With all your skills, do you just want to be a general guarding the city?"
Shen Miao squinted at Hu Wei and asked back in a cold voice.
Upon hearing this, Hu Wei lowered his head even more.
Who would be willing to have such ability but be content to be just a small general?
He used to be a bandit, there was nothing he could do.
But now, there is a better future.
A real man should carry a three-foot sword and accomplish unparalleled feats. Who wouldn't want to wield a sword and mount a horse?
"Do you also want your boss to stay here forever?"
After asking Hu Wei, Shen Miao did not keep silent, but turned to look at Hu Wei's brothers and asked again.
"This……"
After listening to Shen Miao's words, these men also lowered their heads in shame.
Of course they know that they cannot compare with their boss.
They finally had the government food to eat, and they didn't want to be the boss and live a miserable life here all their lives.
If Hu Wei really had the opportunity to take the next step, they would certainly be willing to do so.
"Master, you go ahead."
After hesitating for a while, they raised their heads, looked at Hu Wei, and started to persuade him.
They will just be ordinary people in this life.
But Hu Wei is different. He has ability and courage that cannot be matched by ten thousand men.
After being persuaded by these people, Hu Wei became even more silent and began to waver.
He clenched his fists and said nothing.
"It's not impossible for you to let them go to the capital."
Seeing Hu Wei wavering, Shen Miao spoke calmly from the side.
When he heard that there was a way to take his brothers with him, Hu Wei raised his head again and looked at her straight.
"As long as you can successfully become a general in the capital, it will be natural for you to find a few personal soldiers."
After Shen Miao finished speaking, she no longer cared about Hu Weiwei's reaction and turned away.
"I'll give you a day to think about it. If you don't want to go, I won't force you."
After leaving a few words, Shen Miao walked out of the military camp.
